dotfiles

One repo for Windows, macOS and Linux dev containers, managed by chezmoi. Each OS only gets its own files (gated in .chezmoiignore), and tools with no package are pulled as pinned releases (.chezmoiexternals/).

Heavily based on rio/dotfiles.

Windows

One command, in a normal (not elevated) PowerShell window. Scoop refuses to install as admin.

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yabo-san/dotfiles/main/bootstrap.ps1 | iex

It installs scoop, then git and chezmoi, then runs chezmoi init --apply yabo-san/dotfiles, imports the scoop and winget package lists, and applies the registry tweaks. The manual leftovers are in dot_config/bootstrap/windows-notes.txt.

Never tested on a clean Windows install. Built incrementally on a live machine and captured into the repo. Expect gaps the first time it runs end to end.

Layer	Tool
Window manager	GlazeWM
Status bar	YASB
Terminal	WezTerm, with an AutoHotkey quake drop-down on `
Shell	PowerShell 7, a port of dot_zshrc
Launcher	Raycast, Open-Shell classic menu on Shift+Win
Files	File Pilot, yazi
Screenshots	Snipping Tool (Win+Shift+S)

Packages: scoop first, then winget. Manifests live in dot_config/bootstrap/.

Keyboard: who owns what

Three things sit on the keyboard. They claim different keys and never see each other's.

• GlazeWM owns the Win key (Win+H/J/K/L move, workspaces on a grid, Win+1-4 / Win+Q W / Win+C, Win+Shift+… send/move) and Alt+Q (graceful close, Cmd+Q parity). Alt+Tab is deliberately unbound so the native switcher works. Win+L is the exception: Windows reserves it for lock below any keyboard hook, so the lock action is disabled in windows-tweaks.reg and Raycast runs scripts/raycast/glaze-move-right.ps1 on it instead. No Raycast, no move-right.
• AutoHotkey (scripts/hotkeys.ahk) owns only what nothing else can rebind, listed below. Playnite kills it before a game and restarts it after (anti-cheat, raw input); the Raycast commands AHK Off / AHK On are the manual version. GlazeWM keeps working with AHK dead.
• Everything else lives in each app's own config (WezTerm, Zen, Obsidian hotkeys), never in AHK, so nothing is double-bound.

Scope	Key	Does
everywhere	`	toggle the WezTerm quake dropdown
everywhere	Ctrl+`	type a literal backtick
not WezTerm / RustDesk	Alt+C Alt+X Alt+V Alt+A	copy / cut / paste / select all (Alt sits where mac's Cmd is)
not WezTerm / RustDesk	Alt+Z, Alt+Shift+Z	undo / redo
not WezTerm / RustDesk	Alt+Shift+C/X/V/A	passed through untouched (Zen copy-URL, addons, …)
Obsidian only	Alt+Y Alt+M Alt+I Alt+N Alt+T	browse vault / move file / Templater Zettel / new tab / daily note
Zen only	Win+click	Alt+click (split tab, Cmd+click parity)

WezTerm is excluded because it binds Alt+C/V itself; remapped to Ctrl+C it would be SIGINT, not copy. RustDesk is excluded so the remote machine gets the real keystrokes.

macOS

# 1. homebrew: https://brew.sh
# 2. mise, from its own installer, NOT homebrew: https://mise.jdx.dev/getting-started.html
brew bundle
chezmoi init --apply yabo-san

Terminal is Ghostty; the backtick quake toggle is Hammerspoon (dot_hammerspoon/init.lua). If mise did not install everything: ~/.local/bin/mise trust ~/.config/mise/config.toml && ~/.local/bin/mise install

Linux (dev containers)

bootstrap.sh installs chezmoi and applies the repo in one step, for Devsy's dotfiles option or any fresh box. Linux gets a trimmed dev shell and never gets .ssh/.

TODO

• run the Windows bootstrap on a clean install
• back up the Raycast config
• a PowerShell helper for Devsy port forwarding
